P001 -GUARD IS A SAFETY ALARM SYSTEM AND NOT A LIFE SAVING DEVICE. "This device is not intended to replace any other safety consideration - i.e., adult supervision, lifeguards, fences, gates, pool covers, locks, etc., and some devices may not detect gradual entry."

If your pool is larger than 800 square feet, if you have more than 2 return lines, any concerns about the size, or if you have an irregular shaped pool or water features such as waterfalls, please call customer service to clarify the recommended number of alarms and locations for alarms: 1-800-242-7163. Poolguard Pool Alarms have been tested and comply to the ASTM Standard Specifications for Residential Pool Alarms ASTM F 2208, in a 16'x 32' pool. POOLGUARD alarms can be used in pools up to 20'x 40' or 800 square feet. pmoz) o FIGURE 2 Pools 800 Square Feet and Smaller. (Cont. on next page) PLACEMENT IN YOUR POOL (Continued) POOLGUARD automatically compensates for variations in pool levels within the unit's operating range. The unit utilizes a sensing throat which projects into the water and is designed to operate in most pools with an in -wall skimmer. The sensing throat cannot be less than 2.5 inches, (See Figure 3), and not more than 5.5 inches into the water, POOLGUARD recommends that the sensing throat be approximately 4 inches in the water POOLGUARD can be used with SOLAR BLANKETS on the pool. POOLGUARD can also be used in spas. 12 3/4" 14 1/2" 13 1/2" SENSINGTHROAT CANNOT BE LESSTHAN 2.5"IN BLOCKRT THE WATER, POOLGUARD RECOMMENDS THAT TTHE HE WATER SENSING THROAT BE APPROXIMATELY 4" IN FIGURE 3 IMPORTANT POOLGUARD may not function properly if your poops water level is not maintained within the required levels of your alar. Also, the unit may not operate effectively while certain types of automatic pool cleaners are in operation. Some irregular shaped decks may not provide a level foundation for the unit by the pool's edge. This minor problem can be overcome by appropriately supporting the unit, (See Figure 3). STABILIZING YOUR POOL ALARM The Alarm Stabilizing Pin (ASP) is factory installed onto your pool alarm. Tools needed to install your alarm are: One 5/16" masonry drill bit that can be found at your local hardware store, a drill, a pencil, a tape measure or yard stick. 1. Position your pool alarm so that the sensing throat is in the water and the ASP is touching the deck, (leave a small space no more than 3/8" between the sensing throat and the top edge of your deck or coping), (See Figure 4). 2. Mark with a pencil the spot where you wish to drill the hole for the ASP. 3. With the 5/16" masonry drill bit, drill a hole 2 1/4" inches deep, as straight as possible. (Cont. on next page) STABILIZING YOUR POOL ALARM (Continued) 4. Clean off the debris and install the alarm by placing the ASP into the 5/16" diameter by 2 1/4" deep hole. 5. Your Pool Alarm is now ready for use. If you have any questions or need help with installation, please give us a call at 1-800-242-7163. 6. Be sure to keep the ASP hole clean from debris and dirt so that your alarm will always lay flat on the pool deck when installed. REMEMBER THAT THE POOL UNIT MUST BE REMOVED FROM POOL BEFORE SWIMMING!

TEST BEFORE USING To ensure effectiveness, test POOLGUARD every time you place it into the pool by performing the following procedure: •POOLGUARD DOES NOT HAVE AN ON/OFF SWITCH When the alarm is in the pool it is always in the ON position and cannot be turned off. When the alarm is out of the pool it is always in the OFF position. •To test your alarm push an object of appropriate volume and weight off the deck edge at the farthest location from the alarm. (A four (4) gallon jug of water or 3 -one (1) gallon jugs of water tied together are ideal for testing.) The alarm should sound when the water action caused by the intrusion reaches the unit. It may take a few seconds for the alarm to react to the water action. (Cont. on next page)
